Abstract: The invention relates to an integrated method of identifying, aggregating and making accessible information from multiple heterogeneous sources including receiving data about an entity from a remotely located source; parsing the data using a parser specific to the remotely located source; if the entity does not have an existing unique entity identifier, assigning a unique entity identifier to the entity; associating the data with the unique entity identifier for the entity; associating a version number with the data and the unique entity identifier; storing the data and the version number in a location specific to the remotely located source; aggregating the entity data accumulated from multiple remote sources and stored in locations specific to the remote source in a common, logical view of the entity record; populating the common, logical entity record in a high speed memory with the data; making the entity data available from the high speed memory for use by one or more applications independently of each o
